LOL Chrissy! Hosanna is a great name for The Supreme Being's gift. I haven't been able to check in on your adventures today, or on the WW thread. I'll try to do that later.

We are broke. The plumbing and furnace repairs tapped into our meager savings. I mean, we have the retirement fund, but we're not touching that. We have 50 dollars in the bank until the end of the month, we're out of catfood, we both smoke cigs (I know, shut up) and we're out of weed.

Soooo, I took a bud off Pat last night. A small one, 4 grams wet. I dried her out using this method, found here:Grow Marijuana FAQ, Cannabis cultivation - marijuana growing tips & photos
Dankmaster's Microwave Steam Method
A vast improvement in quick dry technology. It does a satisfactory job fairly quickly. Trichomes donā??t burst and flavor while not great isnā??t awful anymore -- which is all I can say for any of the previously mentioned methods. What the method does is use steam to dry out the weed.

Necessary items

*Tupperware container with lid.

*Buds fresh off the plant (cut into small pieces, donā??t shred them ā?? cut into nice little chunks).

*3-paper towels.

*Microwave with power setting options.

*Water.

First, take 1/4 piece of a paper towel and lay it on the bottom of the Tupperware container. Then put your cut up weed on the paper towel. Next, take two paper towels, fold them several times and get them wet. Wring out most of the water. You want the paper towels wet but not dripping. Now, you lay the paper towels over the top of the Tupperware making sure that you completely and evenly cover the top. Then take the lid and squeeze it almost all the way on. When I say almost I mean to get all sides and corners on tight except for one corner to allow the steam to exit. Now your ready to put your steam dryer in the microwave.

Set the microwave power to 40 or 50 %. I recommend 40% -- I tried it on full power the first few times and it didnā??t work nearly as well. Now set it for a minute and let it go. Take it out and let the steam evaporate out and let sit for 15-20 seconds. If the bottom paper towel (the one that the buds are on) is wet change it. If the two paper towels you were using are dry make sure to re-wet and wring out and put back over top and put lid on in same way.

Now microwave at 40-50% for another minute and repeat process for typically 3-5 minutes. This is the best method if you need the herb in less than 20 minutes.

This worked like a charm. Dried the bud weighed exactly 1 gram. Papi rolled himself a blunt. Now, Papi is Smokezilla. He usually rolls 3 grams in a blunt, and smokes it by himself in order to feel anything. He smoked half of this little blunt of extremely premature bud, and he didn't have to say anything to me. I could tell by looking at him that he was stoned to the bone. He commenced to rambling, getting really cerebral. His eyes took on that familiar look, like he'd been crying...red, puffy, glassy.

So, I am happy. I got my man really really fucking high. Which after all was the whole point of me starting this little adventure. I can't wait until it's properly dried and cured to watch him lose his mind. hehehehe.
